I don't understand your interpretation of what I wrote... I did not write nor imply that unions are there to squeeze companies until they fold.

Obviously employees want the company to do well, at the same time unions are there to extract as much as they can on behalf of their members. Both are true and not mutually exclusive.

In your example, if profits go up 10% unions might push of big salary increases, indeed.

My office is a former slab-on-grade warehouse that was converted into offices, laboratories, and manufacturing halls.

They installed eight multi-stall bathrooms where once there was a single room in the corner with one toilet through the revolutionary act of running PEX and digging a trench in the slab for sewage.

It is trivial to do the same in a high-rise. If anything it will be easier because instead of digging a trench you can punch holes in the floor and route plumbing and ventilation through the plenum (or whatever is up there).

Water supply and power isn't a problem because here's a secret: commercial spaces almost always use more power than residential, especially in the extremely esoteric and rare cases where workers have computers and copiers. Hell all of these buildings have phat 3-phase service.

Nobody said “break things”. Making one specific thing reliably, quickly and cheap is a completely different approach to the “move fast and break things” approach.
Most people probably already know ranger and vim. If you like those, stig is a fantastic frontend for the Transmission bittorrent client. Has both tui and cli. I mostly use the tui, but sometimes cli is useful for e.g. `sleep 15m && stig start stopped`.

The tui controls are quite intuitive if you know vim, and a lot of them are basically abbreviations, like ts for torrent start/stop, tm for torrent move (setting path), tn for torrent name (rename top level dir/file of the torrent), td for torrent delete. The command mode in the tui is also quite flexible. You use :add to add a torrent by url or file path, and you can specify -s to add in stopped state and -p to specify the path for all those torrents, but those args can go before or after the torrents. Depending if I have the path or torrent on my clipboard first I'll write out the command differently. Often I use primary selection to grab a torrent url from my IRC client and then my clipboard manager of sorts to slap a path on my clipboard and paste both in quick succession.

I keep it running in tmux on my server and can add torrents from my phone or PC over ssh. It can connect to remote Transmission sessions, but my distro doesn't package it so I just run it on the same server as Transmission. In the past I used other frontends for Transmission and Deluge, but none are nearly as good as stig.

In point of fact most L2+ caches are already ECC'd on whole cache lines, as I understand it. At the level of on-SOC integration this makes a little more sense [1] as it effectively "improves yield" by recovering marginal cache regions that wouldn't otherwise pass tests.

The New Climate Institute has a study showing how we can hit 2 degrees without carbon capture or geo-engineering. It's painful, but possible.

3 degrees basically requires countries to meet their commitments. Which for the developing world basically means net zero electricity generation by 2035, 99% of new vehicle sales being EV by 2030 and no new fossil heating in a similar time frame. That's 3/4 of the major emitters. Those are the "easy" ones, since those 3 changes all save money over the medium term. Some sort of technological or social miracle in the 4th (agriculture, especially meat) would give us a lot more slack.

Anarchy, or anarchism?

In my private lexicon, "anarchy" is simply a state of social disorder. "Anarchism" on the other hand, is any of a number of political views that reject hierarchy, violence and masters (so anarcho-capitalism is capitalism, not anarchism). The maintenance of order in a society without using hierarchies or violence ironically requires a lot of organisation and "rules".

People have to opt-in to those rules, at least in the sense that you can live with them for now. Yes, there will always be people who reject all rules, and refuse to cooperate with others. They get shunned, which sounds awful; but nearly all anarchist societies are embedded in some hierarchical state, so opting out isn't that awful.

I have trouble imagining an anarchist society that encompasses an entire state or territory. I'm told that Iraqi Kurds have established something like that, but I have no experience of it, and don't know how it works. I've only known anarchism working in relatively small groups, with a surrounding non-anarchist society to absorb and deal with the opt-outs.

I really don't think there was any way to avoid that.

This is a whole new set of antivaxxers. The previous antivaxxers are still out there, but they were a tiny crank minority.

This new set of antivaxxers is a purely political statement -- a politics that had already been increasingly divorced from science for decades. There is an enormous overlap with creationists and climate denialists. They had been primed to reject any science that they didn't want to believe. Even before the vaccine, they first denied that COVID was a genuine threat, and then touted various alternative "cures".

I suppose there is one real change, in that these new antivaxxers are also being influenced by the old antivaxxers into rejecting all kinds of vaccines. And that's sure gonna kill a buncha people. But zoomed out a bit, I believe that the real problem is a generalized paranoia, of which this is just a tiny new piece.

There are less carbon intensive methods of travel, though they obviously come with inconveniences. Also, the technology to see and learn about other places has never been better or more available to everyone. People seem to like working from home, perhaps they can learn to do more from home generally (and again I'll be told that that is a ridiculous notion).

But if I really wanted to start a flamewar, I'd suggest agricultural changes; that is eating less beef in particular and meat generally. There are reasons so many religions have diet restrictions - it's a fairly fundamental part of human identity.

Exactly. It's cousins with the hacker mindset. And it is fun & comes with a thrill. If your mindset is "crime bad, criminals stupid, why?", you might try getting away with something sometime. It's a special pleasure.
For a radix sort on the 8 digit USD serial numbers, it takes 8x more time (the 2 letters can be ignored).
That could be halved by radix sorting on pairs of digits, but then keeping track of 100 piles instead of 10 probably negates most of the gain.
In practice, partial sorting suffices to reduce the serial number search time to a reasonably short amount, e.g. by
4 rounds of radix sorting.
Traversing trees recursively is so trivial. I have to do this kind of stuff all the time. Just last week actually (in some frontend code no less).

Graph search and B-trees I haven't done professionally since I left college though. But it is still good to know the theory when dealing with databases.

A lot of these algorithms is more about knowing their characteristics than knowing how to implement them. For example cryptographic algorithms can be complex, but having a good lib and knowing each crypto algorithm characteristics is usually good enough for almost everyone.

You can index the json expression directly, but yes it's convenient.

Also the intent was probably to store JSON as BSON blob for faster access, but the example needs to insert jsonb('jsonstring') to achieve that. Rest of the example can stay unchanged.

SQLite has exceptionally readable documentation, I recommend just reading whole relevant chapter before using some functions.
You run most of these models in something that wraps them in an HTTP API. I use Ollama, which I think is the most popular but I’m not in a great position to judge. My impression is that it handles running models on CPU better.

So you’d basically install Ollama, download one of the versions of this model off HuggingFace, create a Modelfile since this isn’t in the default Ollama repo, and then Ollama can answer prompts with the model. Modelfiles are very simple, based on Dockerfiles. It takes like 15 seconds to make one if you aren’t messing with the various parameters.

Once it’s in Ollama, just get one of the various GPT plugins for VSCode and give it the Ollama URL (http://localhost:11434 by default). I use continue.dev but there are many.

Continue takes over the tab autocomplete with the LLM, and has a chat window on the right where you can use keyboard shortcuts to copy code into the prompt and ask it to edit/generate code or ask questions about existing code.
My point is that there is probably almost as much that can be done to mitigate forest fire risks as there is to mitigate house fire risks. We know which forests have a high risk of forest fire and we know various techniques that can be used to lower that risk. If we choose to let forests close to where people live become an unnecessarily high danger for forest fires (or let people live close to 'dangerous' forests), then that is a choice.

I’m not even sure that it is irrational exactly. The owners of a company want to believe and behave as if they own the company. Its their toy to do with as they please.

Unionization changes the fundamental facts of ownership. The owner no longer do as they please, they must consult the representatives of their labor force.

If you look at it, I'm sure you'll find equally plenty of people rolling their eyes at film critics for "making that up".

But I broadly share the sentiment of your message, and I personally blame some sort of variation of Goodhart's law. School curricula take an unquestionably good thing ("the critical search of meaning is an important skill to have") and have to pigeonhole it into something standardized and quantifiable (otherwise, how can you stitch a grade number to it? The horror!). The result is this desolate widespread contempt for everything that is not a literal interpretation.
Not easier, maybe slightly more economical. One could easily turn the less-desirable inner spaces into common areas or something else economically-sustainable, like public storage, co-working spaces, etc.

You're playing the avoidance game - to avoid having to challenge your currently blindly-unchallenged narrative you've convinced yourself is the truth; common practice of an ideologue who's beliefs can't hold water once challenged.

This is called bipolar or all-or-nothing thinking. You either have a mental block or you're being intellectually dishonest by not being willing, avoiding actually integrating my logic into your thinking to then respond to that vs. blatant knee-jerk reaction dismissal.

Most of us alive today, sure. Some humans and other animals will probably squeak through.

Dooming shouldn't stop us from acting, though. Lobby for sane steps based on concepts laid out in Low-Tech Magazine, for example (notably how much energy it costs to make steel, how important it is to heat our bodies first and then maybe the spaces we're in, and how important it is to get off the new-tech treadmill- the old ways worked for tens of thousands of years and are still great), make bold decisions in this direction even if unpopular (I don't fly anymore, and some in my family are uncomfortable with that. That's how culture starts to shift), and focus on what's within your power (which can shift over time, so stay nimble and aware).

We'll be okay. It's okay to die- it makes life all the richer.

There are a ton of us out here that consciously choose Apple because of their position on privacy.

Certainly my circle is not a useful sample, but the Apple people in it are almost all Apple people because of privacy.

There are plenty of reasons not to code on spare time. If anything the people who are most likely to do that are often also the people who coding interviews are supposed to be privileging, fresh single college grads.

It's a bit before my time, and tape based games never really caught on in the US as far as I'm aware, but I've always been kind of fascinated by storing programs in audio.

There's something bizarrely cool about the idea of taking something designed for an analog medium and using it for something sort of definitionally not analog. It was traditionally cassette tapes, but I saw a YouTube video where some companies distributed games on CDs, and there's something kind of weird and anachronistic about being able to play a ZX Spectrum game off a CD; the program is going from Digital (being written) -> analog (converted to audio signals) -> digital (put on a CD) -> analog (back to audio) -> digital (read by the computer). People can be pretty clever sometimes.

The unspoken thing about cops is that, yes, they surely care about vacation time, working hours, healthcare. And, yes, they are probably just as much victims of liberal economic austerity and such as the broader workforce. And, yes, its even not that much of stretch to call their labor "productive" (in the Marxist sense) considering how much money they extract from the population they are "serving" (only speaking for the U.S. here).

But regardless, even if they are struggling to pay rent or save for their child's college, they are singularly compensated by the one thing almost as valuable as money in our world: bare authority.
